call_usermodehelper: simplify/fix UMH_NO_WAIT case
__call_usermodehelper(UMH_NO_WAIT) has 2 problems:
- if kernel_thread() fails, call_usermodehelper_freeinfo()
is not called.
- for unknown reason UMH_NO_WAIT has UMH_WAIT_PROC logic,
we spawn yet another thread which waits until the user
mode application exits.
Change the UMH_NO_WAIT code to use ____call_usermodehelper() instead of
wait_for_helper(), and do call_usermodehelper_freeinfo() unconditionally.
We can rely on CLONE_VFORK, do_fork(CLONE_VFORK) until the child exits or
execs.
With or without this patch UMH_NO_WAIT does not report the error if
kernel_thread() fails, this is correct since the caller doesn't wait for
result.

wait_for_helper: SIGCHLD from user-space can lead to use-after-free
1. wait_for_helper() calls allow_signal(SIGCHLD) to ensure the child
can't autoreap itself.
However, this means that a spurious SIGCHILD from user-space can
set TIF_SIGPENDING and:
- kernel_thread() or sys_wait4() can fail due to signal_pending()
- worse, wait4() can fail before ____call_usermodehelper() execs
or exits. In this case the caller may kfree(subprocess_info)
while the child still uses this memory.
Change the code to use SIG_DFL instead of magic "(void __user *)2"
set by allow_signal(). This means that SIGCHLD won't be delivered,
yet the child won't autoreap itsefl.
The problem is minor, only root can send a signal to this kthread.
2. If sys_wait4(&ret) fails it doesn't populate "ret", in this case
wait_for_helper() reports a random value from uninitialized var.
With this patch sys_wait4() should never fail, but still it makes
sense to initialize ret = -ECHILD so that the caller can notice
the problem.

exec: replace call_usermodehelper_pipe with use of umh init function and resolve limit
The first patch in this series introduced an init function to the

This patch takes advantage of that fact, by customizing the helper in
do_coredump to create the pipe and set its core limit to one (for our
recusrsion check). This lets us clean up the previous uglyness in the

kmod: add init function to usermodehelper
About 6 months ago, I made a set of changes to how the core-dump-to-a-pipe
feature in the kernel works. We had reports of several races, including
some reports of apps bypassing our recursion check so that a process that
was forked as part of a core_pattern setup could infinitely crash and
refork until the system crashed.
We fixed those by improving our recursion checks. The new check basically
refuses to fork a process if its core limit is zero, which works well.
Unfortunately, I've been getting grief from maintainer of user space
programs that are inserted as the forked process of core_pattern. They
contend that in order for their programs (such as abrt and apport) to
work, all the running processes in a system must have their core limits
set to a non-zero value, to which I say 'yes'. I did this by design, and
think thats the right way to do things.
But I've been asked to ease this burden on user space enough times that I
thought I would take a look at it. The first suggestion was to make the
recursion check fail on a non-zero 'special' number, like one. That way
the core collector process could set its core size ulimit to 1, and enable
the kernel's recursion detection. This isn't a bad idea on the surface,
but I don't like it since its opt-in, in that if a program like abrt or
apport has a bug and fails to set such a core limit, we're left with a
recursively crashing system again.
So I've come up with this. What I've done is modify the
call_usermodehelper api such that an extra parameter is added, a function
pointer which will be called by the user helper task, after it forks, but
before it exec's the required process. This will give the caller the
opportunity to get a call back in the processes context, allowing it to do
whatever it needs to to the process in the kernel prior to exec-ing the
user space code. In the case of do_coredump, this callback is ues to set
the core ulimit of the helper process to 1. This elimnates the opt-in
problem that I had above, as it allows the ulimit for core sizes to be set
to the value of 1, which is what the recursion check looks for in
do_coredump.
This patch:
Create new function call_usermodehelper_fns() and allow it to assign both
an init and cleanup function, as we'll as arbitrary data.
The init function is called from the context of the forked process and
allows for customization of the helper process prior to calling exec. Its
return code gates the continuation of the process, or causes its exit.
Also add an arbitrary data pointer to the subprocess_info struct allowing
for data to be passed from the caller to the new process, and the
subsequent cleanup process
Also, use this patch to cleanup the cleanup function. It currently takes
an argp and envp pointer for freeing, which is ugly. Lets instead just
make the subprocess_info structure public, and pass that to the cleanup
and init routines

signals: check_kill_permission(): don't check creds if same_thread_group()
Andrew Tridgell reports that aio_read(SIGEV_SIGNAL) can fail if the
notification from the helper thread races with setresuid(), see
http://samba.org/~tridge/junkcode/aio_uid.c
This happens because check_kill_permission() doesn't permit sending a
signal to the task with the different cred->xids. But there is not any
security reason to check ->cred's when the task sends a signal (private or
group-wide) to its sub-thread. Whatever we do, any thread can bypass all
security checks and send SIGKILL to all threads, or it can block a signal
SIG and do kill(gettid(), SIG) to deliver this signal to another
sub-thread. Not to mention that CLONE_THREAD implies CLONE_VM.
Change check_kill_permission() to avoid the credentials check when the
sender and the target are from the same thread group.
Also, move "cred = current_cred()" down to avoid calling get_current()
twice.
Note: David Howells pointed out we could relax this even more, the
CLONE_SIGHAND (without CLONE_THREAD) case probably does not need
these checks too.

cpusets: new round-robin rotor for SLAB allocations
We have observed several workloads running on multi-node systems where
memory is assigned unevenly across the nodes in the system. There are
numerous reasons for this but one is the round-robin rotor in
cpuset_mem_spread_node().
For example, a simple test that writes a multi-page file will allocate
pages on nodes 0 2 4 6 ... Odd nodes are skipped. (Sometimes it
allocates on odd nodes & skips even nodes).
An example is shown below. The program "lfile" writes a file consisting
of 10 pages. The program then mmaps the file & uses get_mempolicy(...,
MPOL_F_NODE) to determine the nodes where the file pages were allocated.
The output is shown below:
# ./lfile
allocated on nodes: 2 4 6 0 1 2 6 0 2
There is a single rotor that is used for allocating both file pages & slab
pages. Writing the file allocates both a data page & a slab page
(buffer_head). This advances the RR rotor 2 nodes for each page
allocated.
A quick confirmation seems to confirm this is the cause of the uneven
allocation:
This patch introduces a second rotor that is used for slab allocations.

memcg: fix mis-accounting of file mapped racy with migration
FILE_MAPPED per memcg of migrated file cache is not properly updated,
because our hook in page_add_file_rmap() can't know to which memcg
FILE_MAPPED should be counted.
Basically, this patch is for fixing the bug but includes some big changes
to fix up other messes.
Now, at migrating mapped file, events happen in following sequence.
1. allocate a new page.
2. get memcg of an old page.
3. charge ageinst a new page before migration. But at this point,
no changes to new page's page_cgroup, no commit for the charge.
(IOW, PCG_USED bit is not set.)
4. page migration replaces radix-tree, old-page and new-page.
5. page migration remaps the new page if the old page was mapped.
6. Here, the new page is unlocked.
7. memcg commits the charge for newpage, Mark the new page's page_cgroup
as PCG_USED.
Because "commit" happens after page-remap, we can count FILE_MAPPED
at "5", because we should avoid to trust page_cgroup->mem_cgroup.
if PCG_USED bit is unset.
(Note: memcg's LRU removal code does that but LRU-isolation logic is used
for helping it. When we overwrite page_cgroup->mem_cgroup, page_cgroup is
not on LRU or page_cgroup->mem_cgroup is NULL.)
We can lose file_mapped accounting information at 5 because FILE_MAPPED
is updated only when mapcount changes 0->1. So we should catch it.
BTW, historically, above implemntation comes from migration-failure
of anonymous page. Because we charge both of old page and new page
with mapcount=0, we can't catch
- the page is really freed before remap.
- migration fails but it's freed before remap
or .....corner cases.
New migration sequence with memcg is:
1. allocate a new page.
2. mark PageCgroupMigration to the old page.
3. charge against a new page onto the old page's memcg. (here, new page's pc
is marked as PageCgroupUsed.)
4. page migration replaces radix-tree, page table, etc...
5. At remapping, new page's page_cgroup is now makrked as "USED"
We can catch 0->1 event and FILE_MAPPED will be properly updated.
And we can catch SWAPOUT event after unlock this and freeing this
page by unmap() can be caught.
7. Clear PageCgroupMigration of the old page.
So, FILE_MAPPED will be correctly updated.
Then, for what MIGRATION flag is ?
Without it, at migration failure, we may have to charge old page again
because it may be fully unmapped. "charge" means that we have to dive into
memory reclaim or something complated. So, it's better to avoid
charge it again. Before this patch, __commit_charge() was working for
both of the old/new page and fixed up all. But this technique has some
racy condtion around FILE_MAPPED and SWAPOUT etc...
Now, the kernel use MIGRATION flag and don't uncharge old page until
the end of migration.
I hope this change will make memcg's page migration much simpler. This
page migration has caused several troubles. Worth to add a flag for
simplification.

This patch adds support for moving charge of file pages, which include
normal file, tmpfs file and swaps of tmpfs file. It's enabled by setting
bit 1 of <target cgroup>/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate.
Unlike the case of anonymous pages, file pages(and swaps) in the range
mmapped by the task will be moved even if the task hasn't done page fault,
i.e. they might not be the task's "RSS", but other task's "RSS" that maps
the same file. And mapcount of the page is ignored(the page can be moved
even if page_mapcount(page) > 1). So, conditions that the page/swap
should be met to be moved is that it must be in the range mmapped by the
target task and it must be charged to the old cgroup.
This adds a feature to disable oom-killer for memcg, if disabled, of
course, tasks under memcg will stop.
But now, we have oom-notifier for memcg. And the world around memcg is
not under out-of-memory. memcg's out-of-memory just shows memcg hits
limit. Then, administrator or management daemon can recover the situation
by
- kill some process
- enlarge limit, add more swap.
- migrate some tasks
- remove file cache on tmps (difficult ?)
Unlike oom-killer, you can take enough information before killing tasks.
(by gcore, or, ps etc.)
Considering containers or other resource management softwares in userland,
event notification of OOM in memcg should be implemented. Now, memcg has
"threshold" notifier which uses eventfd, we can make use of it for oom
notification.
This patch adds oom notification eventfd callback for memcg. The usage is
very similar to threshold notifier, but control file is memory.oom_control
and no arguments other than eventfd is required.

memcg's oom waitqueue is a system-wide wait_queue (for handling

in wake up path.
This patch adds a filtering feature for waking up oom-waiters. Hierarchy
is properly handled.

SDIO specification allows RAW (Read after Write) operation using

omap_hsmmc: improve interrupt synchronisation
The following changes were needed:
- do not use in_interrupt() because it will not work
with threaded interrupts
In addition, the following improvements were made:
- ensure DMA is unmapped only after the final DMA interrupt
- ensure a request is completed only after the final DMA interrupt
- disable controller interrupts when a request is not in progress
- remove the spin-lock protecting the start of a new request from
an unexpected interrupt because the locking was complicated and
a 'req_in_progress' flag suffices (since the spin-lock only defers
the unexpected interrupts anyway)
- instead use the spin-lock to protect the MMC interrupt handler
from the DMA interrupt handler
- remove the semaphore preventing DMA from being started while
the previous DMA is still in progress - the other changes make that
impossible, so it is now a BUG_ON condition
- ensure the controller interrupt status is clear before exiting
the interrrupt handler
In general, these changes make the code safer but do not fix any specific
bugs so backporting is not necessary.

By passing the number of EDMA slots to be used in MMC driver from platform
data, EDMA slots available for other purposes can be controlled.
Most of the platforms will not use this platform data variable. But on
DM355, as the number of EDMA resources available is limited, the number of
scatter- gather segments used inside the MMC driver can be 8 (passed as
platform data) instead of 16. On DM355, when the number of scatter-gather
segments was reduced to 8, I saw a performance difference of about
